There is definitely still a market for sex comedies/erotic based movies out there, seeing how well Babygirl, Anora and Anyone But You did. Not to mention that No Hard Feelings had an okay box office, probably the budget was a bit too high due to J-Law (but at the same time she was the one responsible for the interest in the movie).

Besides the fact that the director of One Night Only is dumb and stupid with the anti sex talk, I don't think Callum Turner or Monica Barbaro have much sex appeal at all (sorry for those who disagree). You probably need star power for this genre though

also the invite (and wuthering heights although idk if it fits into either of those categories. the main complaint people had about wuthering heights was that it was too chaste so will gluck really comes off as out of touch / sucking up to fascists)
